SELF PORTRAIT CONTEST

UPDATE: 7-1-09 RUN OFF

There were some issues with multiple votes last night after midnight. Before this happened there were 2 clear leaders, #9 and #11.

I am opening the poll back up and letting just these two be voted on. The one with the most votes by 5pm central will be announced as the winner.

Thanks!

CONGRATULATIONS TOP 15!!!!!!

We just couldn't cut it anymore...

YOU guys are in charge of the voting. So, send all of your friends this link so they can vote for YOU!

VOTING ENDS WEDNESDAY AT MIDNIGHT! Our winner will be announced Thursday July 2nd!

Note:
All images were taken with a cell phone and processed in phone. Or at least they all said that is the case. : ) The winner gets Allison's much loved 16gig 3G. The nicks and dings are only there to show how much she loved the phone.

#3 is my brother and could definitely use the iphone. Im still a little lost as to why some people who already have iphones would enter.

Tonya Williams (06-30-2009 at 7:23pm):

not sure how to vote; but if I can place my vote here; I vote for pic #11

Carmen Swilley (06-30-2009 at 7:34pm):

Oh my gosh, Scott! That is a wonderful pic!!! gave me chills!!

Roger (07-01-2009 at 9:40am):

I'm not sure how #11 got 800 votes in less than 9 hours (and overnight), but I commend him/her.

TSW (07-01-2009 at 12:25pm):

Love all the photos - pictures are worth a thousand words :)

Brenda, Kerri & Kimmi (07-01-2009 at 3:52pm):

Scott, we are voting for you and having everyone we know vote. It is a great picture. it tells the type of man you are.

UCI (07-01-2009 at 5:09pm):

The 65 kids at the UC Irvine Computer Camp would like to congratulate #11 (our director's cousin) on her victory. Glad we could help! And, we didn't vote 'til today...not sure about the inconsistencies from yesterday...so please don't blame us, just b/c we like computers.

MEGAN AND ROB BONUS SLIDESHOW

Here is a video slideshow I have been wanting to make for a while. We have made quite a few of these for regular portrait sessions so I thought I would try out a wedding and see if it fits.

I think it turned out very nicely. This will be an option for Brides in the future. The interesting thing is you are able to download to your iPhone and show it to your friends or you can embed the video on your blog or facebook to show off as well!

Music by the very gifted and gracious Jeremy Horn.

IPHONE PICS FROM THE ROSEMARY BEACH 2009 SESSIONS

We have severely neglected the blog the last 3 weeks. This last week has been spent catching up on all the work that piled up while we were at Rosemary Beach Florida. It was a great time and we got to meet a lot of new people and see old friends. Here are the images taken by Allison and myself using the iPhone. All these pics were shot and processed in the camera. We have posted most of these images through Twitter using Twitpic but I wanted to put them together as a whole for the blog.

BTW, Here are the apps I like for shooting and working on pics on my iPhone.

Enjoy!

Jeff

The images are mixed up so have fun deciding who shot what image. : )

looks like a great trip and pockets full of memories. love the mostest alison with her daughter closeup and the girls hugging eyes closed, but the others have universal beach memory-feelings of years gone past and who doesn't love that?? thanks for sharing being such an ongoing inspiration!

Teresa Montgomery (06-30-2009 at 12:22am):
